I have the ligament stretching stuff...my lower back hurts today but yesterday my upper back was hurting. I could go for a massage right now. I still have sore boobs, which surprises me a bit, but oddly enough reassures me as well. And it seems like I have been hit with a new bought of tiredness this week. Twice I have fallen asleep for an hour after putting DS to be at 7pm!

Yes, still sleeping a lot. I'm almost matching my 2-year-old for sleep.<br><br>
Still eating a ton! but that won't go away anytime this year.<br><br>
Otherwise, great! I finally feel like I'm gonna have a baby.

I'm with you, Jessitron! I feel like I'm gonna have a baby! <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.mothering.com/discussions/images/smilies/orngbiggrin.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="orange big grin"><br><br>
I have lots of ligament stretching. Not always fun.<br><br>
I'm very tired! Ready to fall asleep by 10 these days and usually I'm up waaaaay late. I'm finally learning that actually going to bed is a good thing! <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.mothering.com/discussions/images/smilies/lol.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="lol"><br><br>
I'm also still starving! Hungry all the time. Need lots of protein! But still can't handle a lot of foods - like eggs, some chicken, leafy greens, smoked foods, etc.

Every time I sneeze, I pull ligaments. My boobs feel bigger but aren't really sore. I feel almost "normal" at this point other than having a big belly.

 

[jrayn]

I have... belly button pain.....<br>
My appetite is fabulous and I am trying out all these recipes I have been storing in my recipe binder, besides my daughter eating good food is my other joy right now.<br>
My back has been hurting too, but it isn't like I am huge, seems pretty silly for a couple extra lbs in the gut to make my back hurt....<br>
The nipples are still tender, I actually cupped them and breathed hot air on them tonight b/c they felt a little too cold... tmi????

 

[kleines]

My lower back and tailbone hurt a lot lately.<br>
I think that the MS is starting to let up a little bit.<br>
I have had a headache every day for 5 days now.<br>
Still have sore breasts.<br>
I am also still having a tough time getting the protein in.<br><br>
I do feel pregnant now though, and I am feeling a lot better than a few days ago!!

 

[Stayseeliz]

Sore boobs<br>
Constipation<br>
Tiredness<br>
Constant hunger. CONSTANT!!!! It's driving me nuts!<br>
Weepiness<br><br>
Lots of fun here!

I still have the roung ligament stuff, and back stuff, and sciatic stuff... but all of those seem to come and go. First thing in the morning is not a fun time for me <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.mothering.com/discussions/images/smilies/orngtongue.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Stick Out Tongue"> And I still pee a lot and have a bigger appetite. If I'm really hungry, I seem to revert to the nausea/food aversions of early(er) pregnancy. And I'm tired, but not *exhausted* -- this is more likely just normal mom tiredness. I still have restless leg sometimes, but now it seems like it happens more in the daytime -- like if I've been on my feet for awhile and then sit down, my legs get that feeling. Ugh. And my varicose veins are getting worse. And, apparently, I'm a bit of a whiner. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.mothering.com/discussions/images/smilies/redface.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Embarrassment"><br><br>
But I'm getting little kicks! (As I may have already mentioned <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.mothering.com/discussions/images/smilies/shy.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="innocent">) It's a good thing I'm not actually too emotionally, er, unsteady with this pg, because I would be bawling each time I feel them. As it is, I get all smiley and teary.

My most bothersome things are that my low back hurts all the time and that I don't have the range of movement I used to...I notice it when I put my shoes on and when I'm teaching my class. I can't use my stomach muscles like I did before. I'm tired, but not all the time like I was...only exhausted in the evenings now which is a huge improvement.<br><br>
I'm really surprised that I'm not so hungry anymore. I figured that would continue...but nope...my appetite is much more normal now....which can be dangerous for me because I'm used to eating 1600-1800 calories a day...I need to concentrate on getting the 2100 I need.<br><br>
My boobs have gotten bigger again...but luckily they're not sore. I have what appears to be small ammounts of dried colostrum on the nipples as well.<br><br>
I have the ligament stuff at times, but nothing terrible...it was actually much worse in the first 2 months.

 

[Dena]

Well, my bbs are growing, and the nipples itch like crazy.<br><br>
I think my belly grows daily. I already look five months along. I am getting a little worried about what September will bring! <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.mothering.com/discussions/images/smilies/lol.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="lol"><br><br>
I get horrible ligament pains when I sneeze, too. Yeouch!<br><br>
If I am on my feet too long I get these stretching feelings along the base of my belly and have to sit down and rest.<br><br>
My low back aches, but not a ton unless I overdo.<br><br>
I have to eat regularly or I get hot flashes and dizzy spells. Fortunately I am always hungry, so this is not too much of a problem, except I am actually getting tired of eating. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.mothering.com/discussions/images/smilies/redface.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Embarrassment"><br><br>
The tiredness is easing, and the m/s seems to be gone. I still could use more sleep, but seem to wake up at five a.m. most mornings and lie there for an hour or two. Oh, well.

 

[gypsyfaery]

I am feeling pretty good but watch out for the mood swings!!! I am a time bomb right now. Oh and of course that horrible constipation. It doesn't matter what I do...UGH! Other than than the sun is shining and I feel great.

 

[kosheng]

slightly less tired than i was... slightly! naps are sooo delicious!<br>
realized during volleyball games last night that bb's are still quite, um, sensitive?!?<br>
the constant hunger pangs have let up a bit.<br>
still can't brush my teeth without gagging, and occasionally hurling and having to start all over again!<br>
ms is pretty rare now~ thank goodness!!<br><br>
i have to say, things are much better than a month ago!

 

[smudge]

Hmmm-<br>
-Pee at night<br>
-Sore boobs, that unfortunately are getting bigger every day <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.mothering.com/discussions/images/smilies/irked.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="irked">:<br>
-Tailbone pain, WTH is that all about?!<br>
-Sciatic pain first thing in the am, until I get moving.<br>
-And I have a really hard time staying awake. If I could go to bed now and wake up just in time for my c/section I would be thrilled! <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.mothering.com/discussions/images/smilies/lol.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="lol">
